The Mill-Machine
Machinery
I see
For grinding
For crushing
Into
Powder
As fine as dust
It goes for so long
Without going wrong
Day after day
Today and yesterday
Machinery
I see
For grinding
For crushing
Into
Powder
As fine as dust
Moving with a strength with no form
Within its body there is warmth
It will always last
With perfume from the past
Machinery
I see
For grinding
For crushing
Into
Powder
As fine as dust
Memory is light in the dark
That leaves an everlasting mark
The Mill’s black water like a starless night
A haunted memory from my sight
